“Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win, which is one of the essentials to success.”

~Napoleon Hill

Don’t compare yourself to the competition…blaze your own trail…

“Never letting the competition define you. Instead, you have to define yourself based on a point of view you care deeply about.”

~Tom Chappel

“What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists…and it becomes available only when you are in that state of mind in which you know exactly what you want…and are fully determined not to quit until you get it.”

~Alexander Graham Bell

“If you don’t like something change it; if you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.”

~Mary Engelbreit

Today’s quote reminds me that it is better to give than to receive. Giving of yourself, is many times the greatest gift you can give a person…and yourself…

“I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”

~Albert Schweitzer
